Entering the eatery hand-in-hand, the duo tried dishes from Chef Carla Pellegrino’s kitchen. The couple shared salads, such as the Baby Arugula Salad and the Garbage Salad, and noshed on the meatball sampler, a medley of six meatballs, topped with spicy meat sauce. Pellegrino also brought out her signature Margherita Pizza for Ice-T and Austin to enjoy.

The popular hot-spot presented the pair with a specially-made Coco Coconut Sunrise punchbowl, which had Ice-T exclaim, “Oh, damn!” when he saw the 10-quart, Coco-themed drink.
